OLDIES SUNDAY (Christmas): Scrunter – De Parang Now Start

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s that time of year when Ham is being sold for record-high prices, and crates of Sodas and Beers are being ordered. It’s Christmas time on Oldies Sunday. In Trinidad and Tobago, Parang is recognized (this year celebrates 45 years of Soca Parang), and for today’s selection, we go there to check out Scrunter’s “De Parang Now Start“.

Produced by Earl Crosby and released through JW Production, Scrunter celebrates the Christmas season in “De Parang Now Start”. Backed by great production, Scrunter shares lyrics about what Christmas time means to him, what is expected during the season, and invites everyone to partake and have fun. This track will have you dancing throughout, and if this doesn’t give you fond thoughts, you’re not listening hard enough. “De Parang Now Start” quickly became a popular track, and was featured on the compilation album, “A Decade Of Scrunter: De Parang Now Start“.

Scrunter is still active in music, and has been hailed as the “King Of Soca Parang“. It was rumoured last year of his passing, but he is still making his rounds, and showing up for Parang. Stay tuned to this platform for another holiday offering on Oldies Sunday!

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s that time of year where those who live where it snows long for warmer temperatures, and businesses look to make the most money they’ve made all year. It’s Christmas time on Oldies Sunday. For today’s selection, we go back to the 80s to check out Anthony Selassie’s “Rub-A-Dub Christmas“.

Produced by Sugar Minott and released through Youth Promotion in 1989, “Rub-A-Dub Christmas” was all about the parties, the unity, the love, and the immense vibes during the holiday season. Anthony Selassie borrows the classic “Tis The Season” melody, and delivers a version that everyone got along with. If your Bank account was low, it didn’t matter because everyone felt irie when this one played. “Rub-A-Dub Christmas” was featured on the “Christmas Jamboree” compilation that featured Sugar Minott and a few of his friends, and was released through Youth Promotion. Roll up some Collie Weed, and boogie down with your partner to this one.

Since the release of “Rub-A-Dub Christmas”, Anthony Selassie continued to have an active music career with his latest release being earlier this year. “Rub-A-Dub Christmas” still gets played around the world, along with many other Christmas-themed songs.

Thank You Anthony Selassie For This Tune!

Celebrate “12 Days Of Choppa Christmas” With Our New Playlist!

Posted on by swadedavillain

Christmas Day is almost here, and the parties have already started. Christmas is celebrated by all sorts of people from different backgrounds, but what about the Scammers and Choppas? While they use the other days of the year to relish in their spoils from various activities, how do they celebrate Christmas? Well, while we can’t answer that, we made a Playlist just for those who want to pretend to live like a Choppa during Christmas for a while.

With the “12 Days Of Choppa Christmas” Playlist, we’ve compiled 12 Chop Dancehall hits that instantly shut the place down. From Squash to Valiant, we hope you enjoy the tracks, and be sure to rock Polo, Aeropostale, American Eagle, Gucci, and Psycho Bunny while listening.

13th Street Promotions does not endorse scamming activities, but some of the songs are cool to listen to.

In case you see this before or after the day, we wish for you a great Christmas, and may it be all you wanted this year.

OLDIES SUNDAY (Christmas): Red Plastic Bag – Maizie

Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s the last Sunday before Christmas Day, and we hope you aren’t under immense pressure to get presents for everyone. It’s also another Oldies Sunday, and we have another selection that plays in the theme of the season. We take a trip to Barbados to check out Red Plastic Bag’s “Maizie“!

Produced by Mc Donald Fingall and released through the Pond Side label, Red Plastic Bag had to deliver something special for the holiday season. The song is a take on a classic Christmas song, but with Red’s signature twist as he speaks on the character “Maizie” who has been caught kissing Santa Claus. The story gets interesting as Maizie is being approached with questions about the man she’s kissing to see if it’s really Santa, or her secret lover. The drama-filled song became a popular since its release, and remains a favourite among Bajans, and listeners from around the world during Christmas time. Red Plastic Bag is a multi-year Soca Monarch King, and is one of the Icons of Calypso/Soca in the Caribbean.

Next Sunday is Christmas Day, save us a seat at the table.
